So I orderend a new 108 link chain and a 14t front sprocket.  front and rear sportec M-1s 150/60/17 & 110/70/17. my last few mods I have left are progressive spings, duel headlights, rear seat cowl and a custom undertail kit, that would force me to get a rear hugger and install the license plate down by the rear shock :icon_mrgreen:.

I would have ordered a 110 link and cut it if necessary...

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

how much for the sportecs? let me know how they feel like on 3.5 rim (do you have stock rim?) and let me know if you had to modify anything to be able to fit them in.
cheers

I am using the stock rim cause the guy who sold me the katana rim told me it was a 4.5 and once I git it it was a 3.5. so I will install it on the stock rim until I can find a bigger rim. oh and the rear was $99 and the front was $76.

Well, damn.. didn't we here say that it was a 3.5" and you didn't listen to us?

Sucks man.. bet you can turn around and sell it real quick on ebay though, and not lose any $$..

I did listen I even asked the guy to double check the rim(this was all before I bidded on the rim) and he said is was 17X4.5 blah blah. So I waited till it was 30 sec on the bid and got it for $20. Im going to list it on ebay and start the bid at $24+shipping.
